Taliban is far from the worst terrorist group. They seem to generally control things at least, rather than just causing chaos
They have the worst perception on social issues…

Trump cut off the 40 million a week Biden was sending the Taliban. It was probably dependent on that money to keep the economy afloat. Leasing the base to us is probably not the worst thing to them. As others have stated, the location is ideal and having some influence in the area could be profitable.
Working out a deal for rare earth minerals could be a win for both sides. No one has ever effectively forced a change on these people. Working with moderate Arabs to show the advantages of modernization may slowly work. I don’t believe we can buy them which would be the Dim solution.

Prior to us invading them, yes.
Can you think of anything else they did prior to that?
